Commercial FX Products

There are different types of FX exposure a company may face: transactional and operational. For businesses that trade overseas in different currencies, currency volatility and how to mitigate that risk is an important consideration.

Spot

A spot FX trade is a straightforward foreign currency exchange. Using real-time exchange rates, we offer confidential same-day, next day and spot foreign exchange transaction services in over 60 different currencies. We access multiple pools of liquidity to secure sharper pricing, enabling our clients to benefit from seamless execution and fast, secure settlement.

Market orders

A market order is an order to buy/sell a specified amount of currency at a predetermined rate of exchange not currently achievable. This allows you to get on with your day job and take advantage of market moves without having to keep track of the markets all day long. It also allows you to take advantage of any overnight volatility or illiquidity that you may not necessarily see in normal trading hours. Monex offers two main types of market orders; limit orders and a stop loss order.

Deliverable forwards

Monex Europa S.L. provides OTC (over-the-counter) deliverable forward contracts for making FX related payments for identifiable goods, services or direct investment. Forward contracts can be an effective solution to mitigate currency risk, providing certainty and flexibility with business costs such as global payroll, overseas invoices and intercompany transfers. A forward contract;
  • Fixes the value of future international payments and receipts.
  • Protects profit margins, cash flow and your bottom line from currency fluctuations.

Margin terms

As part of our corporate foreign exchange offering, we can offer flexible margin terms to clients looking to hedge up to 5 years ahead. Subject to creditworthiness, these margin facilities may lower or remove the requirement to place initial and/or variation margin with us that would otherwise be required against any forward trades.

Dual Currency Investments (DCI’s)

When purchasing real estate, art, or investments abroad, you will always receive a competitive real-time exchange rate from us. We ensure that your money arrives on time, all without the complexity of dealing with your own bank.

Physical multi-currency IBANS

Physical multi-currency IBANs are bank accounts that allow you to hold and manage multiple currencies under one account number. They provide a unique, physical IBAN for receiving and sending international payments. Businesses can collect funds in different currencies like USD, EUR, and GBP without opening separate bank accounts. They help reduce foreign exchange costs by allowing currency conversion at competitive rates. Such accounts are commonly used by global businesses, fintech companies, and e-commerce platforms for cross-border transactions.

Valuta Swaps

Valuta swaps, also known as currency swaps, are financial agreements between two parties to exchange principal and interest payments in different currencies. At the beginning of the contract, the parties exchange a fixed amount of money based on an agreed exchange rate. During the contract period, they pay interest to each other in the swapped currencies. At maturity, the original principal amounts are exchanged back. These swaps help companies reduce foreign exchange risk and obtain better borrowing conditions in international markets.

Vanilla Options

Vanilla options are standard financial contracts that give the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined price within a specific time period. The two main types are call options (right to buy) and put options (right to sell). They have fixed terms such as strike price, expiry date, and contract size. Vanilla options are commonly traded on exchanges and over-the-counter markets. They are widely used for hedging risk or for speculative investment strategies.
